1855. Maximum Distance Between a Pair of Values

Medium

You are given two non-increasing 0-indexed integer arrays nums1 and nums2.

A pair of indices (i, j), where 0 <= i < nums1.length and 0 <= j < nums2.length, is valid if both i <= j and nums1[i] <= nums2[j]. The distance of the pair is j - i.

Return the maximum distance of any valid pair (i, j). If there are no valid pairs, return 0.

An array arr is non-increasing if arr[i-1] >= arr[i] for every 1 <= i < arr.length.

Example 1:

Input: nums1 = [55,30,5,4,2], nums2 = [100,20,10,10,5]

Output: 2

Explanation: The valid pairs are (0,0), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (3,3), (3,4), and (4,4). The maximum distance is 2 with pair (2,4).

Example 2:

Input: nums1 = [2,2,2], nums2 = [10,10,1]

Output: 1

Explanation: The valid pairs are (0,0), (0,1), and (1,1). The maximum distance is 1 with pair (0,1).

Example 3:

Input: nums1 = [30,29,19,5], nums2 = [25,25,25,25,25]

Output: 2

Explanation: The valid pairs are (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (3,3), and (3,4). The maximum distance is 2 with pair (2,4).

Solution

class Solution {
    fun maxDistance(nums1: IntArray, nums2: IntArray): Int {
        val n = nums1.size
        val m = nums2.size
        var po1 = 0
        var po2 = 0
        var res = 0
        while (po1 < n && po2 < m) {
            if (nums1[po1] > nums2[po2]) {
                po1++
            } else {
                if (po2 != po1) {
                    res = Math.max(res, po2 - po1)
                }
                po2++
            }
        }
        return res
    }
}
